| | | ANOTHER EPIC BATTLE IS BREWINGYear 71, Cosmic Era. After the terrible battle of Yakin Due, an uneasy peace rests between the Earth Alliance and the Zaft Empire. But even as Cagalli and Athrun visit Chairman Durandal to cement the tentative cease-fire, Zaft terrorists plot with Neo Roanoke to drag both sides into all-out war. The plan: storm Zaft territory and steal several Gundam Mobile Suits. But that's only the beginning. They're also scheming to engineer a catastrophic event, one designed to drive the Earth down a bloody path. Now the crew of the Minerva must prevent disaster, as everything and everyone-including the love between Athrun and Cagalli-is thrown in mortal danger.
Annotation:
It is year 71 of the Cosmic Era, and finally there is a ceasefire between the Earth Alliance and ZAFT. But the specter of war is never far away, and familiar heroes/lovers Cagalli and Athrun must work harder than ever to make sure the precarious peace holds. In keeping with the massive appeal of the long-running Gundam franchise, Masatsugu Iwase's powerful drawings of giant humanoid spacecraft and epic battle scenes keep the action fresh, while the romantic tension between Cagalli and Athrun stays strong.
| Praise| "What may hold newbies' attention [is] the continuing attraction of the Gundams themselves, all captured by the intricate art: it would be wonderful to shrug off the frustrating complications of our daily lives, climb inside a fantastically powerful machine and go out to fight for peace."
